assbot: Stunning photo of CA's drought from /NASA & /KTVU - this is a pic of Folsom Lake: http://t.co/VU5iRS11bo
pete_dushenski: https://twitter.com/sierraclub/status/503618001523204096 << sucks to be californian
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: jewland too. it's just not in the cards for that continent, having civilised countries there. << myeah. move jews and boers to south america already.
abathingape: "...due to work being much more busy than expected (especially in the last 3 years)."
danielpbarron: ;;later tell mircea_popescu http://danielpbarron.com/DerpReport/ << updated
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: I mean if the situation for the blacks improved... would there be a Ferguson? << read the lulziest headline on a national newspaper yesterday "blacks still aren't equal to whites. some think obama should do more."
kakobrekla: ;;later tell mircea_popescu you can sort by weight now.
pete_dushenski: not that horses are cheap, but at least the ride in teams properly
pete_dushenski: hipsters tend to be pretty broke, spending all disposable income on max iphone plans
asciilifeform: doesn't have to be alone - what's to stop somebody from riding grinding wheels in regiment ?
pete_dushenski: hipster at least desire the company of others, unlike anyone who uses grinding wheels
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: lol i saw one of those around town recently. definitely not hipster material
assbot: Shark Cat on Roomba Chasing Duck - Original HD TWT Version - YouTube
jurov: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3tU_SYSfOU roomba cat came to mind
asciilifeform had a dream many years ago that his grandfather took an ancient grinding wheel from workshop, turned it upside-down, and taught him to ride it. and now people actually do something quite like this. ☟︎☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: real hipsters ride horses << nah. they ride... grinding wheels. e.g., http://www.robotee.com/image/NEWS/31020_SoloWheel_timthumb.jpg
asciilifeform: he confuses the shoddy nature of modern computers with bitcoin as a technology, which can and will exist independently from today's crap-o-soft << this.
jurov: ah they said nothing about sausages
kakobrekla: my drivers license expired recently, havent gone through the bureaucracy of extending it yet so ima bit grounded - do you have a car here or how do you get around
kakobrekla: any approximate timeframe for how long you staying?

jurov: enjoy. me too
jurov: but then, it implies he's bi?
jurov: i don't think kako meant literal bacon and sausages
BingoBoingo: xmj: Well someone founded the channel and created text for the page...
BingoBoingo: It isn't unwarranted. It's on the first link in the topic
xmj: kakobrekla: thinks*
xmj: kakobrekla: jurov things it's necessary we meet. i'm in ljubljana for an indefinite amount of time, how about beer if you're in town?
xmj: i didn't bring them unwarranted gifts
jurov: just a thought
jurov: idk, you met strangers in estonia or such too?
assbot: #bitcoin-assets | You cannot stop the clouds by the building of a ship.
BingoBoingo: http://bitcoin-assets.com << See the section titled how to stay
xmj: especially those items i'd just eat myself.
xmj: BingoBoingo: and why would i want to bring a stranger gifts?
BingoBoingo: bacon and eggs, even sausages most of the time would be appropriate gifts to bear xmj

jurov: lives somewhere there
jurov: and he's good fellow to meet in person
xmj: who is that and why would i want to?
BingoBoingo: Apocalyptic: Such a thing would probably one of the most usefull things the environment around ATC could have, since... This thing trades slow
xmj: decimation: I'm currently in Ljubljana, it's not that much of a stretch to go there the next couple of days
xmj: berlin is not in the space of permissible answers as defined in the question.
decimation: umm, croatia is a few hour drive to germany right?
pete_dushenski: ok, so berlin then
pete_dushenski: xmj that's a hemisphere nao?
xmj: pete_dushenski: i'm currently considering the area of Eindhoven NL
xmj: pete_dushenski: you missed the part where i was asking for germanic/anglosaxon hemisphere
pete_dushenski: decimation: it's almost exactly that, combined with "don't make naive, model-based predictions and bet all your chips on models mapping reality"
decimation: the book comes off as a combination of "listen to the wisdom of your elders" and "get off my lawn"
pete_dushenski: xmj: What would make for a better home base in 2015 or 2016: Luxembourg, Monaco or Jersey/Guernsey? << try opatija, croatia. twas good enough for franz joseph i
decimation: in the case of bitcoin, I think he confuses the shoddy nature of modern computers with bitcoin as a technology, which can and will exist independently from today's crap-o-soft
decimation: yeah I get his point that old stuff is better, but sometimes a new technology does come along. While he derides electronics, it is clear that man will be making integrated circuits until the end of time (unless a better technology supersedes it)
pete_dushenski: independent quebec could produce all the same things they currently do: flour, maple syrup, construction management
pete_dushenski: taleb's too distracted by the shenanigans in his homeland
pete_dushenski: decimation: to the extent that bitcoin is short usd, taleb would love it to the extent that he could be bothered to understand it
pete_dushenski: youtubetard: yea...Quebec will hopefully demonstrate a peaceful and constructive seccesion << this, i'd like to see
decimation: anti-fragile by taleb has some interesting points. I wonder if he would consider bitcoin "fragile". In one sense, it is fragile because its current implementation relies on fragile computers and somewhat poorly wrought software. In another sense, it is strongly anti-fragile because it benefits from any event that casts doubt on the ability of nation-states to manage their own scrip.
assbot: imgur: the simple image sharer
pete_dushenski: The20YearIRCloud: Eh, gdp between 2nd world and 3rd world is huge, much easier to pay some PMCs and take over a african despot than say kazachstan << reminds me of when elbonia went from a 2nd world country from a 3rd. the only difference being that now they had enough food and were starting to get picky about it.
pete_dushenski: ^or anywhere else for that matter
assbot: Someone bemoaned that there were so few women in economics. But there are also very few men in economics.
decimation: !up The20YearIRCloud
decimation: themselves. However, as in everything else, instead of coming to the ineluctable reactionary conclusions, they try to talk about it in ways that they hope it will get them status points and sympathy from progressives."
decimation: re: handle's rant on the black rioting: http://handleshaus.wordpress.com/2014/08/17/procrustean-rashomon/#comment-4591 << Vladimir has a great comment: "On the other hand, libertarians and conservatives often have some vague intuitive understanding of the real issue, i.e. that the change in policing is just another manifestation of the sad fact that Americans and other Anglos are no longer a free people capable of governing
kakobrekla: way too much mechanical noise.
kakobrekla: DiabloD3 noctua sucks compared to bequiet.
mod6: i don't want to have to calculate anything if possible.
mod6: i'd be preferable to me if x-bt would provide that in the JSON
mod6: ;;later tell mike_c need help with WoL

BingoBoingo: X-Rob: Doesn't sound like the worst thing.
X-Rob: BingoBoingo: yeah. Seems to be mining away happily now. Just that I have no proof-of-mining, apart from random blocks appearing, and I don't like that. So yeah, I'll get onto making a pool later. But it's work-o'clock now.
BingoBoingo: X-Rob: Well, I see we've gotten a few blocks since the switch, so... Improvement

kakobrekla: the overhead on that thing...
X-Rob: BingoBoingo: I gave up on that pool. It was getting worse. I'm solo-mining to that address for the moment. I started writing a playbook so I can deploy pools easily, and I'll hopefully finish it after work today.
fluffypony: and in the end I wasn't very impressed with it
fluffypony: I struggled to get it working
ThickAsThieves: see, i didnt make this up!

punkman: gonna attempt to clean up some chinese php now, god help me
RagnarDanneskjol: I think I got China to seriously consider the circular multilat barter platform you recommended. many thanx for that
X-Rob: BingoBoingo: I'm going to set one up shortly.
BingoBoingo: RagnarDanneskjol: The transparency it affords is exceedingly desirable.
RagnarDanneskjol: BingoBoingo - are you sure p2pool is the preferred platform?
BingoBoingo: Well, you still plan on throwing us a less terrible p2pool? When the digging is done?
X-Rob: OMFG this pool is FUCKING TERRIBLE
